you have fiscal cliff, you have hurricane sandy. are you optimistic about what's happening in the economy if you take out the potential shocks? >> i don't think we make any change at all. i think the job market is producing 150,000 jobs per month, that's what we've been producing since the beginning of the year, over the past year, past two years, some months we're a little lower, higher, sometimes seasonal adjustment. if you take this month's number and x out sandy, that's over 200,000. >> that will add some jobs, that's not a fair comparison. >> so 200,000 minus 60 is 150 -- >> so you're right there. >> i don't think the economy has chang chang changed deappreciably over the last year. >> well, i think coming into friday's number, we're a little -- we don't think there's 80,000 worth of impact, might be closer to 40,000 or 50,000. whatever, there's been an impact and i agree with mark's point, 1 in about 150,000 job creation in the economy and i don't know that meaningfully changes. but i would say, if anything, the bias next year

over the last month, despite hurricane sandy, it is still up 5%. but would going over the fiscal cliff hurt or derail the insurance giant as many expect it to derail business in general? joining me now is the chairman and ceo of allstate. thank you for joining us. president and congressional leaders are meeting with state governors today. you're one of the ceos who met at the white house with some of your other colleagues in business. what's your stance of where we are right now in terms of a deal? >> i'm concerned about it. the good news is everybody sees this as an opportunity to really show american global leadership. the rest of the world is all messed up on this. we can show them how to get it done. they've also all agreed on the three buckets, that being revenues, entitlements, and spending reductions. the bad news is they haven't agreed on how much into each bucket. and i don't think they're trying to create a win/win for each other. most good negotiations, you try to help the other person come out with a win. i don't see that here. >> you h

everybody suggested that sandy would have a significant impact. but the labor department itself is saying no, it did not. is that correct, peter? >> that's correct. and it's because of the way the labor department retrieves and asks businesses and people about their employment. for example, if you work for one hour during a week and there is a storm, you're still counted as employed. for you not to be counted as employed, you can work no hours and get no pay during the particular survey week. >> you've had a chance to go through the whole report. any other headlines stand out at you? >> well, we're substantially revisions in september and october. 50,000 fewer jobs created in those two months than had previously been expected and the labor department does say that we should get a better read of any possible impact of sandy on individual states and regions when they release other numbers, other reports on those in two weeks from now. >> peter barns, thank you very much. i will repeat this because it is a surprise, 7.7% is the unemployment rate. 146
